GizerBridge Sierra Chart → Tralgo Analytics

Automatically transfers completed trades from Sierra Chart to Tralgo Analytics — on Linux.

Sierra Chart runs on Linux via Wine/Bottles/Lutris. Tralgo Analytics has no official importer for this setup. GizerBridge fills that gap.

Built and used daily in live ES/NQ futures trading.


How it works

GizerBridge connects directly to Sierra Chart via the DTC Protocol (TCP on localhost:11099).
No log file polling. No manual export. Trades are detected and transferred in real time as they close.

  Tralgo Analytics
  • Already-sent trade IDs are stored locally → no duplicate uploads
  • Manual import available for historical trades
  • Runs as a system tray app (AppImage, no installation required)

Requirements

  • Linux (any distribution)
  • Sierra Chart running via Wine / Bottles / Lutris
  • DTC Protocol Server enabled in Sierra Chart
  • Active Tralgo Analytics account

Enable DTC in Sierra Chart

Global Settings → Data/Trade Service Settings → DTC Protocol Server

Installation

Option A AppImage (recommended, no install needed)

  1. Download the latest GizerBridge.AppImage from Releases
  2. Make it executable:
    chmod +x GizerBridge.AppImage
    
  3. Run it:
    ./GizerBridge.AppImage
    

Option B From source

git clone https://github.com/gizerlabs/gizerbridge.git
cd gizerbridge
bash install.sh

First Start Setup

On first launch, the settings window opens automatically:

Field What to enter
API Key Your API Key from Tralgo Analytics settings
SC DTC Host localhost (default)
SC DTC Port 11099 (default)
Accounts Account names exactly as shown in Sierra Chart
Instruments Enable instruments, verify tick sizes and values

Save → the app connects immediately and starts monitoring.


System Tray

After start, a colored status dot appears on the tray icon:

Color Status
🟢 Green Running, monitoring for new trades
🟡 Yellow Initializing
🔴 Red Error (session expired, connection issue)

Right-click the tray icon → Open · Manual Import · Settings · Log · Quit

No tray icon on GNOME?
Install the AppIndicator Extension and restart the app.


Security

  • No password is stored or transmitted
  • Authentication via API Key — stored locally in ~/.gizerbridge_config.json with permissions 600

Troubleshooting

Problem Solution
Red icon / transfer error Check internet connection; open Status window for details
No trades detected Verify account names in settings match Sierra Chart exactly
